As sure as the tide ebbs and flows, something new always washes ashore at Electric Picnic! This year, on a sandy stretch of the festival, a new tropical destination awaits as a life size beach in the woods brings the heat, rhythm and irie vibes… Welcome to Treasure Beach!
This is where reggae vibrations, raw energy, dancehall pressure and afro house grooves take over. Rhythm People Recordings’ Afro-Latin set brings the fire with percussive, body-moving selections, DJ Will Softly keeps it typically tropical, while Pablo Santo and Stellar Jo push the boundaries beyond beach beats and shoot for the cosmos.
Meanwhile Beansidhe’s set will be full of positivity, unity and conscious music featuring a mix of classic roots reggae influences alongside original material, showcasing Beansidhe’s own songwriting and unique sound. Aunty Shimmy also known as Shimmy Irie, the Dublin-based reggae selector is sure to be a firm-favourite with the hip shakers! Closing out the weekend will be the Treasure Beach Mashdown, for all you bredrin and sistren throwing shapes ‘til late.
From hazy daytime sessions to full-throttle sunset moments and after-dark movement, Treasure Beach is your escape and your ignition point.
Join us at this a pulsing slice of paradise, where you can whine your body down and feel the riddim in your soul!
